Foreign Policy Regarding Afghanistan and Pakistan, Iraq and Iran
Last night I saw the CEO of Stratfor interviewed on O’Reilly. His comments were very to the point. There are almost two million people in eastern Pakistan invading there is out of the question. Obama wants to use the Europeans to help us out. Startfor says the europeans are incapable since they have small military budgets and are dependent on Russia for oil, etc. According to him the only way to put more US troops into Afganistan is increase the US Federal Defense budget (as McCain wants to do). Good Luck!

Here is a repeat of a link I published a few months back: US removes uranium from Iraq
Another nuke item.
A tense standoff has developed in waters off Somalia over an Iranian merchant ship laden with a mysterious cargo that was hijacked by pirates. Somali pirates suffered skin burns, lost hair and fell gravely ill “within days” of boarding the MV Iran Deyanat. Some of them died.
Andrew Mwangura, the director of the East African Seafarers’ Assistance Programme, told the Sunday Times: “We don’t know exactly how many, but the information that I am getting is that some of them had died. There is something very wrong about that ship.”

This is why Bush and congress tooks us to war in Iraq and why Iran is a major problem.
Remember Valerie Plame/Joe Wilson. He visited Africa and confirmed the Iraqis had been there to buy commodities but not yellowcake. His visit confirmed to the CIA that the Iraqis were buying yellowcake since it is the only product they can export.
